version
-------------------------------------------------------------
PostgreSQL 7.0.2 on i686-pc-linux-gnu, compiled by gcc 2.96
(1 row)
peter=# create user someuser with sysid 0;

It was never really allowed, although it's possible that older version
weren't so careful in checking. However, I'm fairly sure that the
relevant CREATE USER code was the same in 7.0.* and 7.1.*.
